World, O World (simplified version)

The final track on Jacob Collier's four-part, genre-bending, award-winning and world-conquering Djesse album series, this seven minute choral opus was recorded in partnership with Jason Max Ferdinand and the Aeolians of Oakwood University. Hymn-like throughout, the moving lyrics and harmonic language crescendo into an astonishing climax worthy of being the current denouement on the celebrated 30-year old's remarkable catalog of work. This simplified edition, which makes the work more approachable to smaller and/or less advanced choirs, has been approved by the composer.
